Introduction
This homemade ratatouille features a roasted vegetable technique where the eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, and onions are roasted in the oven to intensify their sweetness and maintain texture, then combined with a stovetop-simmered fresh tomato and garlic sauce.
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C).
Step 2
Divide the chopped bell peppers, zucchini, eggplant, and onion between two large baking sheets to prevent overcrowding.
Step 3
Drizzle the vegetables with extra virgin olive oil, season with salt, pepper, and the chopped fresh rosemary and thyme.
Step 4
Toss the vegetables thoroughly to ensure they are evenly coated in the oil and seasonings.
Step 5
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour, tossing every 15 minutes for even roasting.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Using two baking sheets for roasting prevents the vegetables from steaming and ensures they get a nice, roasted exterior.
Slow-cooking the whole garlic cloves on low heat brings out their natural sweetness instead of a harsh bitter garlic flavor.
Do not overcook the tomatoes; they should be soft but still hold their distinct chunks rather than turning into a smooth sauce.
Fold the final mixture gently to preserve the shape and texture of individual roasted vegetable pieces.
